EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in all its gritty glory is Finnish long-distance running legend Juho Pietari 'Hannes' Kolehmainen (1889-1966), as he trains on a rustic athletics track between c1910 and c1915. This striking black-and-white photograph, taken by the renowned Bain News Service, freezes a moment in time for one of Finland's most celebrated athletes.
Kolehmainen was an Olympic champion who dominated long-distance running events throughout his career, earning him international recognition and admiration. Here, he is seen in mid-stride, his determination etched on his face as he pushes himself to new heights.
The photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia and heritage, transporting us back to the early 20th century when sports photography was still an emerging art form. The grainy texture of the print adds depth and character, while Kolehmainen's rugged features seem almost otherworldly against the stark backdrop of the track.
This iconic image is a testament not only to Kolehmainen's remarkable athletic achievements but also to the pioneering work of photographers like Bain News Service in capturing the essence of sportsmen during an era when their stories were just beginning to be told.
